@hallowed.harpy: Bran & Dany - who gets to be a hero? Many of you would not know trope subversion if it bit you in the 🍑 The disabled kid and the little girl assume the role of “traditional” hero, while the traditional hero is given an inverted journey of said traditional heroism. THAT is trope subversion. #daenerystargaryen #jonsnow

It's so frustrating that Jon & his arc as they actually exist in the books are so much more interesting than what half of this fandom wants out of him.

People are so desperate to make Jon more important than he is, which is crazy considering he’s already vital to the story and where it’s going

Bran and Dany are the most magical characters in the story, I would bet a lot of money on one of them being the person a magical prophecy is foretelling.

His birth being forcing prophecy onto someone is true and I never thought of it that way even if it’s so simple

it really frustrates me that people vehemently assign Jon prophecies, because why does he have to be prophesied in order to be important? Like his whole story is about how his worth isn’t defined by his origin and the cards he’s been dealt, about finding and building his worth despite them. His character is about growth and change and him being prophesied gives him an inherent value instead of him earning it which literally goes against his whole arc.

Omg I love this and completely agree. I don’t think Jon is a villain but you’re right that forcing a prophecy has consequences! There’s this amazing theory - the prince that was promised to the others - that believes the nights king and queen had a son who was taken and raised as a stark as a direct mirror to Jon! I still think Jon will be a dragon rider and will defeat the others, but in spite of the prophecy, not because of it! Just like Dany will save the world, not because of her blood (her father and Valyrian heritage) but despite it! And bran will be the rebuilder not because he’s broken but because he’s a sweet, caring, brave boy!

I don't care if Jon becomes a great hero, I care about him finding at least a semblance of agency over his own fate by the end of the series 😭 whether that's as the Night King or something else, so long as he decides it for himself (if he even can decide anything post-resurrection) I will be content. Dany and Bran being the main heroes of the series isn't even an enviable position, idk why everyone so desperately wants Jon to take their roles. They all just suffer in their own unique ways for the sake of prophecy.

And this is how you know a fake george fan. George loves to give a broken character unmatched powers

i don’t know why people assume that jon is the last hero whose story’s most important focus is his meeting with the singers and helping them, and this is exactly what happens with bran, while Jon does not even know about them and does not care about them and he does not love them as much as bran does who has been deeply connected to them since the beginning of the story, not to mention that it is known that the last hero was brandon the builder, and i don’t need to narrate the similarities and connections between him and bran..ignoring bran is insane

It’s BRAN. People desperately need everything to track back to Jon because he’s their Aragorn.

All. The. Time😡 They completely ignore his story and give it to Jon, saying Bloodraven is mentoring Jon and not Bran, despite Bran literally being in his cave??? They do this so Jon can have a parallel with Dany and Quaithe

I have always said to people that Jon is the night king, especially when he finds out about who is mom and dad are AND because George has written multiple times how once someone has retuned from the dead they lose a piece of their humanity. It’s so obvious at this point

I kinda feel like, more so for the show fandom, jon is sort of a mary sue and a perfect insert for the male audience and thats why he has strong almost bot like following. Just my opinion :/

ITS ALWAYS BRAN. Jon’s role is with the FreeFolk and it’s ALSO insanely important and people diminish Jon’s story. If Jon was Last Hero it would be a whomp whomp, but it’s infinitely more interesting if it’s the child you cannot walk. Dany is Azor Ahai and Jon is IMO the very misunderstood Bael the Bard

I blame the show because they made him the most pointless character and then had the nerve to say he had the best story. He wasn’t in a whole season and I didn’t notice.

It was also a group of heroes who accompanied the Last Hero. It’s almost like the Last Hero has already arrived. Just like Azor Ahai. In front of our very eyes. HMMMMM. We know no one but Bran is getting out of that cave alive.

I think a lot of people tend to forget that A Song of Ice and Fire was created back in the 90s, a time where the main protagonist/hero is often a male in the majority of media. This ranges from books, to video games, movies, etc. female leads were rare and often overlooked bc of misogyny, intentional or not. For George to make the decision that a little girl will be the hero who has this major role in the story and will essentially save the world, rather than a man/boy, is very subversive for that time. This ofc applies to Bran as well since a lot of people tend to paint disabled people as incapable or inferior, this leads to infantilization which only hurts them more. To have someone, especially a disabled child, that is bound to be overshadowed by the majority of the readers be more important than the stereotypical protagonist (in this case, Jon) is again, very subversive for the 90s. The show messed up a lot of people when it comes to reading and interpreting the books, especially since it started during a time where female characters were gradually getting more attention with the ‘girlboss’ trope.
